Improvement of the butyl methacrylate-paraffin embedment.
1983
The excellent butyl methacrylate-paraffin method as an embedment for light microscopy has been technically improved. More uniform and reproducible polymerization has been obtained by using a vacuum oven to degas the polymerizing mixture and to replace the air with nitrogen at 650 Torr. The amount of benzoyl peroxide required must be determined for each batch of butyl methacrylate. A teflon lined, reusable metal mold and a method of one-step blocking of tissues in preparation for sectioning are also described.
Über synthetische Matrizenreaktionen

Molecularly homogeneous, polynuclear phenolic compounds were esterified with acrylic acid and methacrylic acid chlorides. The pcresyl esters of acrylic and methacrylic acid react in high dilution in boiling benzene with a large excess of radicals derived from AIBN in such manner that the growth step of the free-radical polymerization is prevented; this may be denoted a “suppressed” polymerization. The application of these conditions to the previously mentioned poly-nuclear esters results in the formation of molecularly homogeneous cyclooligomers (ladder oligomers). Alkaline hydrolysis of these oligomers permits recovery of the polynuclear phenols and yields molecularly homogeneous oligoacry…
Eine einfache, vollstäundige Veresterung von Oligo[(2-hydroxy-1,3-phenylen)methylen]en mit Methacryloylchlorid
1976
Die Darstellung phenolischer Methacrylsaureester verlauft glatt und mit Reinausbeuten bis zu 95%, wenn die in gekuhltem Benzol (5—10°C) in Gegenwart von Triathylamin gelosten phenolischen Verbindungen mit Methacryloylchlorid umgesetzt werden. So wurden neben drei einfachen Phenylmethacrylaten zehn vollstandig veresterte Oligo[(2-hydroxy-1,3-phenylen)methylen]e erhalten. Phenyl methacrylates can easily be prepared with yields of pure esters up to 95% by reaction of the phenolic compounds with methacryloyl chloride in cooled benzene (5—10°C) in the presence of triethylamine. Three simple phenyl methacrylates and ten oligo[(2-hydroxy-1,3-phenylene)methylene]s completely esterified by methacryl…
Untersuchungen zur Reaktionsfähigkeit statistisch verteilter Estergruppierungen in Copolymeren aus Styrol und Acrylsäureestern
1974
Die Aminolyse der ortho- und para-Nitrophenylester von Propionsaure, Isobuttersaure, 4-Phenylbuttersaure und 4-Phenylvaleriansaure sowie von Copolymeren aus Styrol und geringen Mengen Acrylsaure wurde mit Butylamin in Dioxan untersucht. Bei grosem Aminuberschus reagieren die niedermolekularen Ester streng nach erster Ordnung, wobei die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit durch Zugabe von Polystyrol nicht beeinflust wird. Fur Copolymere, deren Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit deutlich geringer ist, erhalt man dagegen keine Beziehung erster Ordnung, obwohl die Anfangsgeschwindigkeit der Gesamtkonzentration der Estergruppen direkt proportional ist. Bei den Copolymeren erhalt man annahernd die gleichen Aktivierun…
Phase equilibria and interfacial tension between coexisting phases for the system water/2-propanol/poly(acrylic acid)
1995
The cloud point curve, tie-lines and interfacial tensions were measured for solutions of 50 mol-% neutralized (counter-ion Na ○+ ) poly(acrylic acid) (molar mass M w = 9 700 g/mol; polydispersity index M w /M n = 2,0) in the mixed solvent water/2-propanol at 30°C. Due to the non-uniformity of the polymer, the end-points of the tie-lines are not situated on the cloud-point curve. The interfacial tension σ, determined by means of the spinning drop method, increases in sigmoidal manner with R tl , the length of the tie-line, expressed in terms of weight fractions. An evaluation of these data in a double-logarithmic plot of σ.M -0,5 versus R tl yields a critical exponent of 4,23 as compared wit…
Wetting ability of an acetone/based etch rinse adhesive after NaOCl-treatment
2011
Objectives: to evaluate the effect of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) treatment on surface dentin roughness (Ra) and contact angle (CA) when using Prime&Bond NT adhesive (PB NT). Study Design: Extracted human third molars were sectioned to expose flat, superficial and deep dentin surfaces. CA and Ra were measured (1) before and (2) after 35% H3PO4 etching, and (3) H3PO4 etching + 5% NaOCl treated for 2 minutes before the application of PB NT. CA was measured by the Axisymmetric Drop Shape Analysis Technique using distilled and deionized water and PB NT. Roughness was evaluated with a profilometer, twelve radial measurements were performed in each treatment surface. Data were analyzed with two-w…
Reduction of Polymerization Shrinkage Stress and Marginal Microleakage Using Soft-Start Polymerization
2003
Purpose: This study evaluated the influence of a soft-start light-curing exposure on polymerization shrinkage stress and marginal integrity of adhesive restorations. Materials and Methods: Six resin-based composites (Pertac II, Tetric Ceram, Definite, Surefil, Solitaire, and Visio-Molar) were adhesively bonded to a cylindrical cavity (n = 9 per material/light) in a photoelastic material. Visible light-curing was applied using either the standard polymerization mode (800 mW/cm2 exposure duration 40 s) of the curing light (Elipar TriLight, 3M ESPE) or the exponential mode from the same device (ramp-curing: 150 mW/cm2 to 800 mW/cm2 within the first 15 s of a total curing time of 40 s). Polymer…
A NANOPARTICULATE DRUG-DELIVERY SYSTEM FOR RIVASTIGMINE: PHYSICO-CHEMICAL AND IN VITRO BIOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION
2007
The preparation and characterization of surface-PE Gylated polymeric nanoparticles are described. These systems were obtained by UV irradiation of PHM and PHM-PEG(2000) as an inverse microemulsion, using an aqueous solution of the PHM/PHM-PEG(2000) copolymer mixture as the internal phase and triacetin saturated with water as the external phase, and characterized by dimensional analysis, zeta-potential measurements and XPS. in vitro biological tests demonstrated their cell compatibility and their ability to escape from phagocytosis. Rivastigmine was encapsulated into the nanoparticle structure and drug-release profiles from loaded samples were investigated in PBS at pH = 7.4 and human plasma.
A new route for the preparation of flexible skin–core poly(ethylene-co-acrylic acid)/polyaniline functional hybrids
2011
Abstract Surface modification of polymeric films is a way to obtain final products with high performance for many specific and ad hoc tailored applications, e.g. in functional packaging, tissue engineering or (bio)sensing. The present work reports, for the first time, on the design and development of surface modified ethylene–acrylic acid copolymer (EAA) films with polyaniline (PANI), with the aim of inducing electrical conductivity and potentially enable the electronic control of a range of physical and chemical properties of the film surface, via a new “grafting from” approach. In particular, we demonstrate that PANI was successfully polymerized and covalently grafted onto flexible EAA su…
Morphology of nanocomposites from ethylene-acrylic acid copolymers
2005
AbstractNew nanocomposites have been prepared by melt-compounding from commercial ethylene-acrylic acid copolymers (EAA) of different molar mass, molecular structure (branched or linear) and AA concentration, and a Zn-ionomer, with three commercial clays containing different proportions of the same organic modifier (dimethyldi(hydrogenated tallow)ammonium ion). Their morphology has been preliminarily investigated by X-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy. The nanocomposites showed disordered intercalated morphology, with an expansion of the average gallery height, which appears to depend quite strongly on the molecular architecture of the EAA, whereas the other investigated v…
